The baking of character

Character like cake
Needs an oven to bake.

Some ovens are different

The cold unknowability of the unknown itself becomes the oven
Logic begins to look weaker and intuition says hold on
The thread of belief starts to tear.

Character collapses to its irreducible state.

You feel alone in the crowd
Questions become your partner, answers play hide and seek.

Cold fire.

It moulds you from inside
Before the tan appears on the outside.

Such characters, like such cakes
Have neither icing nor cherry on the outside.

They are easy to miss
And rare to find.
